Frequently Asked Questions About Proco
Early Rat pedals were not true bypass, but later versions (like the Rat 2) are designed with true bypass switching to preserve signal integrity when the effect is disengaged.
The Rat's unique distortion character – a blend of fuzz, overdrive, and distortion – provides a thick, saturated tone that’s incredibly versatile and inspiring to many guitarists.
While ProCo historically manufactured amplifiers, their focus shifted primarily to effects pedals decades ago, and they are no longer actively producing amplifiers.
